Similar to JARblue's numerical post above.
For what you're after I think the best thing you can do is new fluid (and flush it once yearly). There are a variety of pads with different properties and some get very expensive. You kind of get what you pay for with pads. If your pads are getting close to used up you might as well spring for some nicer ones though. I haven't upgraded my lines and the stock ones have held up fine on the track. Use up the rotors you have now and then you can always buy some new blanks. I wouldn't worry about getting lightweight rotors. The heavier a rotor is the more heat it can soak up before it transfers that heat to your caliper and brake fluid. Also good quality rotors get expensive. For what it's worth I have cracked the Z1 1 piece slotted rotors at the track but they are probably fine for the street.
